I bought my home in 1988. I worked in Chicago so I had quite a commute
everyday. If my memory serves me, I only had one stop light from my house
until I got off the Eden's Expressway. There were cornfields where Gurnee
Mills is now. What a change this area went through! Now I am retired so I
don't have to commute anymore. Thank God. John
